What if the desert isn’t just a place of suffering—but a space of formation?In this episode, host Josh Doyle sits down with historian and archaeologist Dr. Matthew Larsen to explore the deep spiritual, historical, and personal meaning of the desert. From far-west Texas landscapes to biblical narratives, this conversation reframes the desert as a place where clarity, resilience, and faith are forged.We Explore:• The Origin of "The Desert" SeriesDr. Larsen shares how personal hardship, academic study, and time spent in far-west Texas inspired his Desert series—drawing parallels to long journeys home, including Odysseus’ path in "The Odyssey".• The Beauty and Terror of the DesertThe desert is breathtaking—but unforgiving. We unpack how ancient travelers survived these harsh landscapes and how the same tension shows up in our spiritual and personal lives today.• What “Desert” Really Means in the BibleThe Hebrew "midbar* and Greek "eremos" reveal deserts as places of isolation, dependence, and survival—not just emptiness. These definitions reshape how we read Scripture.• Seeing Biblical Stories Through the LandscapeFrom Elijah’s 40-day journey to other overlooked desert narratives, visualizing the terrain brings new depth and realism to familiar biblical stories.Mentioned in this episode:"The Desert" Series — Available on Qava Streaming Servicehttps://qava.tv/welcomeSupport the show:Check out merch, prints, and more at the No Longer Nomads website.https://www.nolongernomads.co/Stay connected:Sign up for the newsletter to hear about upcoming episodes, live events, and more.https://www.nolongernomads.co/If this episode encouraged you, please consider leaving a 5-star review—it helps more people find these stories.New episodes drop every Tuesday at 5 a.m.No Longer Nomads — because no one was meant to wander alone.#Desert #Biblical Lessons #Spiritual Growth #FaithJourney #DrMatthewLarsen #BiblicalHistory #Adventure #Faith #Podcast #Resilience #PersonalTransformation

In this powerful and deeply honest episode of No Longer Nomads, Josh sits down with Brenna Blain to talk about faith, suffering, mental illness, and the difficult questions many believers are afraid to ask out loud.Brenna shares her story of growing up as a pastor’s kid, walking away from faith, navigating trauma, sexuality, bipolar disorder, and multiple stays in the psych ward—and how God met her in the middle of it all. This conversation doesn’t offer shallow answers or quick fixes. Instead, it invites listeners into a more honest, biblical understanding of suffering and what it means to faithfully follow Jesus in the midst of pain.We talk about:- Why “socially acceptable” struggles are easier to share than real ones- Mental illness, faith, and the stigma still present in the church- Whether taking medication means you’re “not trusting God”- How suffering can quietly turn us inward—and how the Holy Spirit meets us there- Why God is still worth following when prayers feel unansweredIf you’ve ever wondered “Why is God worth it?”, felt unseen in your suffering, or questioned whether the church has space for your story—this episode is for you.Mentioned in this episode:Brenna’s book "Can I Say That?" — available wherever books are sold.Support the show:Check out merch, prints, and more at the No Longer Nomads website.Stay connected:Sign up for the newsletter to hear about upcoming episodes, live events, and more.https://www.nolongernomads.co/If this episode encouraged you, please consider leaving a 5-star review—it helps more people find these stories.New episodes drop every Tuesday at 5 a.m.No Longer Nomads — because no one was meant to wander alone.#FaithAndMentalHealth #ChristianSuffering #NoLongerNomads #MentalHealthInTheChurch#HopeInSuffering

Parenting isn’t supposed to feel like this… or is It?In this episode of No Longer Nomads, host Josh Doyle sits down with author, speaker, and mother of ten Abbie Halberstadt (known to many as M Is for Mama) for an honest, hope-filled conversation about parenting, sanctification, control, and faith.Abbie shares her journey from blogging and homeschooling in East Texas to publishing multiple books with Harvest House—and how motherhood exposed deeper struggles with anxiety, anger, impatience, and surrender.Together, Josh and Abbie unpack one powerful truth every parent needs to hear: Just because something is hard doesn’t mean it’s bad.From toddler meltdowns and bedtime anxiety to screen time, family culture, and the myth of “surviving” parenthood, this episode reframes parenting not as chaos to escape—but as a refining gift God uses to shape both children and parents.In this episode, you’ll hear:Why parenting reveals parts of us we didn’t know were thereHow cultural lies about motherhood fuel exhaustion and hopelessnessPractical ways to move from reactionary parenting to intentional leadershipWhy “hard” seasons may actually be acts of God’s mercyHow to build a family culture that thrives—not just survivesScreen time, discipline, bedtime anxiety, and setting loving boundariesThe spiritual formation happening in the everyday mess of family lifeWhether you’re overwhelmed, discouraged, or questioning if you’re “doing it right,” this conversation offers clarity, biblical wisdom, and reassurance that God is present—even in the hardest moments.--Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nolongernomads/Website: https://www.nolongernomads.co/--Josh DoyleHost | No Longer NomadsNathan FarrisCreative Producer | Technical Director | Editor
